Driving Tips for Your Terceira Island Road Trip

Terceira is an island best discovered by car, from the dramatic patchworks of the Serra do Cume viewpoint to the volcanic depths of Algar do Carvão.

  • Exploring Angra do Heroísmo: The UNESCO World Heritage capital features beautiful, tight cobblestone streets. A compact or economy car is highly recommended for easy maneuvering and street parking.
  • The Coastal Highway: Driving the loop around the island is smooth, but watch out for local farmers and cattle sharing the rural roads in the interior!
